Roadcap Named Reading Manager

Mike Drago of the Reading Eagle reports the Reading Phillies have hired Steve Roadcap as their new manager.

The R-Phils finished an underwhelming 53-89, the worst record in the franchise’s history, last season.

Roadcap was managing class-A Lakewood. There, he led the BlueClaws to an 80-60 mark last season. He’ll get some of his Lakewood graduates in Reading, including possibly Michael Taylor and Dominic Brown.
